Hi all

I have a problem :)

I built an application for my friends business in X
Code and Cocoa back in 2004 (OS X.3 - before Core Data
arrived) and used MySQL as the database and SMySQL
framework to connect. But now due to problems with
upgrading MySQL and problems with the SMySQL framework
(I think the project may be dead) - I want to use
something a bit more Mac related and so am looking for
a SQL database that allows me to connect easily using
Cocoa.

I also need to be able to use SQL queries with it
directly since that is how my app is already set up -
(SELECT, UPDATE and DELETE)

The options I've seen are:
1. Core Data - which is good because it ships with
XCode BUT it doesn't appear to allow me to use SQL
directly? Also is it possible to use Core Data as a
client/server on a local network with a maximum of 10
clients writing to the database only occasionally?
2. SQLite - BUT can it act as a server where it
resides on one machine and I can log into it from
another on a local network - I need to be able to do
this.
3. FrontBase

>From users' experience which of these provides the
best option?

Cheers
Jeff
